Hello
i have to host a dual xeon e5-2650 and a dual xeon e5-2670, same vendor same specs. Just cpu a little bit different. Host names are FD2650 and FD2670 The first get hostid 8859128. when i add the second hosts it gets the same hostid. and in both wus go in wrong way, often all the wus (sometimes even 1000) are aborted from server. Is there a way to fix this or is better i give it up? I also reinstalled in both of them server 2019 (before it was win server 2016), i changed hdd in both of them, but nothing, the 2 hosts get always the same host id Please help thanks in advance |

Did you copy some BOINC-file(s) from one computer to the other before starting BOINC on both of them?
----------------------------------------From https://boinc.berkeley.edu/forum_thread.php?id=2946: "What has probably happened, is that the server thinks that each of your models is being run by the same computer, except that they have different specs, which is confusing it." "Disconnect <or detach> one of the computers from <the server>". "Then re-connect <or attach again>, so that you have a new ID." Or, on one of the two computers, stop BOINC, then remove these three files: - client_state.xml - sched_reply_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml - sched_request_www.worldcommunitygrid.org.xml Two of these files contain your host-id in element <hostid>. These files contain your cross-project-ids in elements <external_cpid> and <host_cpid>. Adri [Edit 1 times, last edit by adriverhoef at Feb 3, 2025 12:35:47 AM] |

Also,
double check that the computer names are NOT identical. Although I am more familiar with windows’ COMPUTER NAME you may also have that issue here. Adri is an excellent resource. Following his comments you may have already solved the issue. Happy crunching! |
